OK, so even after all updates, this is still happening for me. It seems related to this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305718 which in turn identifies this problem commit which (although from 2010 was only included upstream in Qt 4.8.3 http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/commit/ada98493bbfbd9af0d0b593017e29d39bcd3495e?format=patch The debian bug also mentions pthread related crashes which I think I've seen floating around in discussions here. I'll revert the patch in our Qt.
